a certain kind of environmentalist will tell you we have ten years to decarbonize and then defend a review process that uses seven of them. the planet is on fire, please submit written comments before the close of the 90 day window
You sould take your own advice and be silent.
A priest would be required to sin against justice and the direction of the Church if he follows what you said. He can very easily sin mortally by omitting these questions when necessary as a grave dereliction of duty. The confessor is both physician and judge. He cannot absolve without knowing number, species, and essential circumstances. If these are not given, he must inquire or withhold absolution.
If someone in the confessional expresses a sin without the requisite specificity for validity (e.g., a woman says 'I slept with a man' without clarifying whether she is married or unmarried), a priest is required to ask certain questions that could change the gravity of the act.
Confessors are taught (or at least supposed to be taught) how to do this gently and with propriety, but your statement that he should "hear the confession and be silent" is completely false and dangerous.
You do not know what you are talking about in an area of utmost delicacy and gravity. You are encouraging women to be suspicious of priests who are doing what God and the Church requires of them. Delete this.
AN INSTANCE FROM THE MAGISTERIUM
Pope Alexander VII (DS 2044-2045) condemned two theses related to this, one that stated that it is enough to say that one has commited a mortal sin against chastity with an unmarried person without clarifying that one had intercourse and another stating that it is enough to state that one has procurred pollution without stating the species of the sin (e.g., Voluptuousness, sodomy, bestiality, etc.)
There are many other documents to confessors that give instructions on penance that explicitly rejects this line of thinking, while also encouraging caution.

@cath_menarion Methinks that nowadays many catholicks โ both laity and clergy โ don't really believe in Dogma of Assumption as it is written. There were even some medial cases of priests preaching to parishioners that "Y'know ofc She didn't literally fly upwards...".
@cath_menarion Authors as late as Bellarmine defended such literalist (by nowadays standards) Visions of afterlife as Hell and Purgatory being spatially under the surface of the Earth.
No need for dooming โ quote is probably fake. It doesn't show up anywhere and St. Therese didn't left much written works, so it should be easy to locate. Moreover there is no work of her entitled "A Pequena Via".
Oczywiลcie, ten argument nie jest ewidentnie bezsensowny: Np. w jฤzyku polskim jak mรณwiฤ o kobiecie per "Profesor" to tego nie odmieniam:
"Profesor mรณwi, ลผe..." โ pลeฤ nie okreลlona;
"Powiedz Profesorowi, ลผe..." โ pลeฤ jednoznacznie mฤska.
A to ten sam rzeczownik! ๐
